Every succesfull team is build from the back
beck,chiellini,bonucci,cissokho,mascherano,marchisio, is an extremely resillient block of concrete to build on.
our problem isnt the scoring, its the conceding. replace all out games we lost cause of brainfart goals, by grinded out draws, and check how high we would be up the table
not to mention that:
- with such defence, we can pretty much field krasic in a free role
- beck and especially cissokho are pretty damn good going forward
- quag, was doing pretty well before he got injured, and juventus was scoring alot in general.
we need the concrete defensive structure we once had, coupled with the mentality the world feared us for.
its the only way to link up the the victories of the past

Not true.
Some are, others aren't.
There you have it, you're living in the past.
Dude, even with the best defensive unit in world football, under Capello, we still struggled to do anything in Europe. Buffon, Thuram, Cannavaro, Zambrotta, Vieira, Emerson, et cetera. Clearly the best in the world at the time. We could grind out results in Serie A, sure. But times are a changing and Milan and Udinese are demonstrating good football can garner success in Serie A.
I agree that the defense is the main priority at this point, but to become a successful side again, in this day and age, we need a well-rounded team. More times than not, quality and skill win out. So that's why we should be looking at classy young players like Pastore while using the budget properly to improve the defense.
